Buzz In: What Are Your Hopes For the Emmy Nominations?

You've seen my picks for the people and shows that I'd like to see get Emmy nominations. Now tell me yours! What's got you crossing your fingers for tomorrow's announcement? Which actors, shows, and TV specials would you love to see get some recognition from the TV academy this year? Which perpetually overlooked favorites are finally due for a mention this time around? And is there anything you're hoping doesn't turn up on the nomination list? Sound off on your hopes below!

So the nominees are out and I am beyond excited that Jim Parsons was nominated. He is hilarious as Dr. Sheldon Cooper and after 2 seasons I think it is awesome. I am also excited for Jon Hamm and Mad Men because I love that show. Can't wait for that to return. I might actually watch the Emmy's this year.I wish for Emmy love for True Blood, that is a great show.

If Michael Emerson is not at least nominated for his performance on LOST I'll be really heartbroken. If anyone deserves to win, it is him.I also hope that Pushing Daisies gets some love. Otherwise I agree with some of the other posters...Zachary Levi for Chuck, NPH, lots of LOST nominations :).

Big Love really came into it's own this season. It's been great since the beginning but this past season was truly a well crafted tapestry, weaving together so many different elements and stories. The acting was just amazing as well.
I'd love to see Chloe Sevigny or Ginifer Goodwin nominated. Amanda Seyfried and Jean Tripplehorn were also great.

My Lost hopes for the Emmy's include Evangeline Lilly for her Kate-centric episode which happened to be the only decent, even excellent, Kate-centric episode in the series so far. I also hope Josh Holloway picks up a nom for his work in the finale. It's a long shot for him, but he was really one of the outstanding highlights in an episode full of highlights. The show should also pick up a writing and directing nom for Follow the Leader, which was a beautifully constructed episode. It was structured with total clarity in a season that was sometimes temporally confusing, and every scene was successively intriguing. It really brought the whole of season five together for me and provided the perfect segue to the finale.
I'd love to see a best drama nomination for both Lost and True Blood. True Blood is absolutely incredible, and the ratings show it. The entire cast is great, the writing is superb, the direction effective, but I dare say this second season is shaping up to be even better. As unreal and caricatured as the characters are, and the show sensationalist, there's a charm and a truth behind those superimposed characters and accents. The show creates for itself a deep cultural relevance that transcends the fantastic and all the deceptively shallow violence and eroticism.
It should also be interesting to see whether Mad Men, Damages and 30 Rock will receive praise equivalent to last year.
It would also be nice is Kal Penn got some recognition for his portrayal of Kutner, who was really the only intriguing new character on House. Again, it may be doubtful but his rat piss deduction was incredible!

I hope Ryan Kwanten (Jason) and Nelsan Ellis (Lafayette) from True Blood get Best Supporting Actor nominations. They're both so good and so dedicated to playing their characters 100%. I also hope Vanessa Williams gets a nomination for Ugly Betty because she impresses me every episode!

I really only care about HBO's Grey Gardens. I hope for a miracle that Drew and Jessica both get nominated in their Best Actress category. And of course that Grey Gardens itself sees many other nominations as well! I just watched it again last night, cried again, and was so moved. It's an A+ all around!
